I think what it means is merging the components of the paint and then erasing (or better, using a layer mask) to remove the unwanted bits.

Thanks..

I will look at how to use a layer mask, I don't understand the other bit..

Having looked at it again, the paint is all on one layer, so ignore what I said about merging it. Using a layer mask to reveal the windows, etc is what you're after. Never heard of the term 'render' being used like that before.

They might mean 'rasterize' but are using video/3-D graphics terminology?

I've never seen 'render' used for that process either, tends to be used when 'turn into pixels' it too long to say In this case the layer is already 'pixels'.

As mentioned before, use the eraser to remove the parts of the layer you want transparent, or better yet use a layer mask (its a better non-destructive approach).


Cheers.
